Lilian, a Ghanaian woman based in Canada, has earned the respect of netizens after she opened up about her love life.
In a now-viral video, the mother of two, speaking in an interview with SVTV Africa on YouTube, shared details on how she reconnected with her ex-boyfriend after going through a messy divorce.
She explained that after four years of life as a divorcée, following the end of her marriage to her South African husband, she rekindled her bond with her ex-boyfriend, whom she had cut ties with for ten years.
“Three to four years after the divorce, my ex and I reconnected. Over the years, we always wanted to come back. We were communicating, not while I was married, because then I completely cut communication. But once I was divorced, he started talking more often. He moved on, things didn’t work; I moved on, things didn’t work. We felt like we had a good relationship.”
After rekindling their bond, Lilain said she and her ex-lover both realised they could resolve the issues that had led them to part ways.
Lilian explained that they are now committed to making their relationship work.
She is currently engaged to her ex-lover, now fiancé, who performed the traditional knocking ceremony in May this year.
“So we decided to talk things through. We spoke about the things that were bothering us before. We really got closure, and we decided to do this until forever. So yeah, now I am engaged. He did the knocking in May,” she said in the interview.
At the time of writing the report, the video had racked in over 2,000 likes and 95 comments.

Reactions to the lady’s love life
Social media users who took to the comments section of the video shared their opinions about her decision
“Nice interview. Smart young lady. Good advice about marriage. People are rushing into marriage.”
“The lady made a point that many people seem to overlook. She said her previous husband once told her she was too focused on her education and career, which meant she was rarely at home. Even when she was, most of her attention went to her studies.”
